The plan calls for Apple to add more than 3,600 employees over the next decade, including customer support, sales and accounting staff. The company has 3,500 employees in its operations there now. In return, the state has offered the world’s most valuable company $21 million in incentives, along with local incentive agreements still to be approved by the city of Austin and Travis County.

The incentive money comes from the state’s controversial Texas Enterprise Fund. The Apple deal will be the largest payout from that fund. Other cities and states have lamented Texas’ ability to outbid them.
